Bosses

The follow changes to bosses have been made in Path of Diablo.

Andariel

• The quest drop bug that exists in LoD has been fixed.

Diablo Clone

• Description: The Diablo Clone fight is a unique event added in Kyanite #11. It is meant to be a very difficult challenge for endgame players.

Note Well: after you're inside, you can't town portal and then return to the fight.

If you're victorious you'll be rewarded with an Annihilus unique small charm.

• Cube Recipe: To enter Diablo Clone's realm you must collect the organs: brain and eye from Ubers Izual, Duriel and Lilith(Diablo's horn), the Soulstone that drops from Diablo in Uber Tristram and a Key of Chaos that drops in maps. Transmute to enter "The Infernal Trial".

• Fight Mechanics:
  

He spawns from a hooded man ("The Dark Wanderer") standing in the middle of the map. When ready, move towards him to begin the fight.

There are 2 parts of the fight with the Diablo Clone.

The 1st part is to kill the 5 Undead Commanders. They will appear along with continually spawning Reanimated Warriors to fight you.

You can't damage or curse Diablo until you've killed the 5 Undead Commanders, but he can damage you. Once you've killed them, the 2nd part begins where Diablo can be damaged.

• Reanimated Warriors are the Reanimated Horde monster with extra physical damage and increased % crushing blow.
• Their charge attack is removed.
• They are curse immune and have high resistance to all damage types

Diablo has a special red aura that reduces all the player's, minion's, and mercenary's maximum resistances by 5%.

"Undead Commanders" have the Prime Evil tag meaning the game gives them the same affixes as an act boss. They are ranged undead monsters that have high resistances, Holy Freeze aura, and attack with a magic + physical damage Guided Arrow.

Undead Commanders shoot guided arrows that do 295-316 damage. 60% is magic damage and 40% is physical. You can block them. The magic damage of the guided arrow can be absorbed by Magic Absorb (Oath, Crescent Moon, Spirit runewords), Magic Damage Reduced by x (Skin of the Vipermagi, String of Ears, Vampire Gaze, Mal rune etc.) and Magic Resist % (Crafted Safety Shield).

The physical damage of the arrow can be reduced by Damage Reduced by x (often referred to as Physical Damage Reduction or PDR. Examples of items with this affix are: Gladiator's Bane + Gerke's Sanctuary. Alternately you can put Perfect Skulls in shields). A more effective affix is: Damage Reduced by % (often referred to as DR%. Examples of items with this affix are: Shaftstop + Stormshield)

Increased hp and a part of his ‘Fire/Cold/Lightning Resistances’ have been replaced by ‘Fire/Cold/Lightning Absorb +%’.

• Occasionally casts Decrepify (-50% Physical Resistance, -50% Physical damage and reduced Run/Walk Speed).

Damage types found in the fight:

• Reanimated Horde: physical
• Undead Commanders: physical+magic
• Diablo Clone: fire (armageddon) and magic (hose)

Uber Mephisto

• Drain effectiveness changed from 0% to 10% (it is possible to leech now from Mephisto without using the Life Tap curse)

Uber Baal

• Uses 'Lower Max Resist' curse which does -5% to player’s max resists
• Uses Frozen Armor instead of Chilling Armor

Uber Diablo

Lightning Hose:

• now hits in melee range
• increased damage
• 33% physical + 67% lightning

Uber Izual

• Has the Prime Evil tag. This makes him like act bosses and ubers who have special resistances and damage reductions

Super Uniques

• Act 3 Council Members no longer spawn with Fire Enchanted (fixes bug in Vanilla D2 that causes these monsters to deal insane damage in Nightmare)
• The Ancients will always spawn with fixed modifiers: Korlic has increased physical damage, Talic has Extra Fast and Madawc has Multiple Projectiles(Shot?). Talic now uses a lower level Whirlwind.

Additional Notes

• Uber Tristram is reduced in size with several obstacles removed
